The ticket gets you in the gate, but what about the experience? Parking will set you back roughly £30 to £50 if you drive. Campsite passes for non-campers? Another tenner. And food? Oh, you’re going to want food. A burger and chips can cost £12 to £15, and a pint of beer is around £7. That’s a lot of money to drink something that tastes like regret and hops.
Pro tip: Bring a refillable water bottle. Download has free water refill stations, and your future sober self will thank you. Your past self might cringe, but your wallet will feel like a rock star.

Is It Worth the Cash? Let’s Do the Math
Okay, let’s say you go full send: weekend ticket with camping, parking, some food, and a few overpriced ciders. You’re looking at £350 to £500 total. That’s a lot of money, sure. But compare it to three concerts in your hometown? Easy £200 each, no camping, and the crowd doesn’t smell like a beautiful mix of mud, suncream, and rebellion.
Also, think about the memories. The time you crowd-surfed to a band you’ve never heard of. The random dude who shared his bacon sandwich when you were broke. That is priceless. Well, actually, it costs about the same as a mid-range sofa. But who needs a sofa when you have rock and roll?
